Nozawa Onsen Spring Snow Report 29/4/2019

Nozawa Onsen Spring Snow Report, 29th of April 2019

This Nozawa Onsen spring keeps on giving. The resort is reporting a couple of centimetres overnight to go with what we awoke to yesterday. It really is amazing how much snow we have been blessed with during the month of April. What it all means is that there is still a very healthy base up top.

There are only a few days left in the ski season before it’s the Green Season‘s turn. It tends to surprise people that we have such a long season here in Nozawa Onsen but it’s probably fair to say that everyone has been surprised by April’s snowfall. Coinciding with Japan’s Golden Week celebrations, it truly is a magic time to be in the village. If you or someone you know are in Japan and finding it difficult to find accommodation for this busy period, we still have a few rooms available. Come on up!

Today is all about the sunshine and those golden rays falling down upon the week of the same name. We may get a bit of weather tonight and tomorrow but it’s doubtful the temperatures will be low enough for it to be anything other than a bit of spring rain.

What’s the official word from the top of the mountain?

At 7:40 am;

Perhaps we’ve seen the last snowfall for this season but there will surely be another season. In between, of course, the beauty of the Green Season. Check out the link below to find out how guests can spend a month in Nozawa Onsen for cheaper than the price of rent at home!
